I'm almost positive it was harder on me than it was on my precious boys.

It's hard for me to give you up...a friend of mine wrote out some words of wisdom today given from her father- "Give them the roots to ground them and the wings to fly.". I'll do my best to keep doing just that, but know my sweet boys, how hard it is for me to let you go...

...Each year you grow a little taller and take a few more steps away from me. I pray for you daily...prayers for independence and fruitful lives...but I also promise not to move from this place I am standing...and I hope that you will always remember the way back to us whenever you may need it. I love you more than cotton candy and water slides...and that my love-monkeys is a lot of loving! Here is to the most wonderful school year!

We Three Smith's Pinterest & Instagram

Us

It all started with a boy and a girl at a little place called Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas. We tied the knot in July of 2000 and welcomed our first son, Ryder, in September of 2007.

Almost exactly two years later our sweet Rustin was born and we became We Three Smiths + One.

I love staying home with my boys, family, good friends, DIY Blogs, Photography, Target, Sonic Happy Hours, Costco Swirl Yogurt, Sweet Tea, a good glass of wine on the patio, the warmth of the sun and Mexican beaches.

We are loving life and it's beautiful blessings. This blog documents our joys, our sorrows and anything else that happens along the way.
